Hum, I like that if only because it might make some owners let them go
for cheap.
Just because something is in print doesn't mean it is fact. The kind of
cameras one finds in a run of the mill antique store typically lack
value. That shouldn't lead an author to conclude that cameras don't
have value. More like: the cameras that antique dealers pick up are
rarely worth buying.
Another thing overlooked: lens and accessories. Are we to assume that if
cameras aren't worth anything, lenses and accessories must really be
junk?
